This beautiful new listing in the beating heart of Golden Square brings to life all the romance of its post-war heritage. The home is a classic example of the Californian Bungalow, with all the period trimmings, starting with a façade to fall for. Take the brick-lined front path to a façade of timber shingles and stained-glass windows and a welcoming veranda. Inside, find more period details to love; high, ornate ceilings, picture rails and original doors are just the beginning. The home has been upgraded and updated in all the right areas, while remaining sympathetic to the past. A contemporary lifestyle is assured thanks to two spacious living areas and three bedrooms. Double front doors swing open to a grand entrance hall that’s perfect for dressing with rugs, artwork and feature furniture. The front loungeroom is the jewel of the home, with its beautiful plaster ceiling, stained-glass bay window and original fireplace with a gas flame heater nestled within. There’s also split system heating and cooling for efficient year-round comfort. Beyond this, the second living room has space for a dining table and lounge furniture. It’s open to the wide walkway, which has white timber-lined walls and ceiling, bringing yet more character to the space. The modern kitchen has a raked ceiling and white vinyl-wrap cabinets, an under-bench oven and gas cooktop. Of the three bedrooms, the front room is the largest, and features more lovely windows, a built-in-robe in keeping with the home’s style. The central four-piece bathroom is bright white and fit for purpose. The living space continues outside, thanks to a wide brick-paved undercover alfresco that spans the entire width of the home. And beyond is a lush and private garden landscape with brick edges and retaining walls. A real bonus here is the side vehicle access through to the backyard shed, which has a concrete floor, power and storage space. Number 40 Maple Street is a short walk from the local recreation reserve, the amazing Golden Square Swimming Pool, and the cool corner café. A connected community lifestyle and amazing value is guaranteed here.
